What's the reasoning why Sony won't develop a solid FPS or TPS with multiplayer?

Not really. It's probably the most crowded genre of games.

To gain market share today a successful shooter today would need to pull players away from Warzone, Apex, Fortnite, CS, Valorant, Overwatch, Siege, Destiny, etc. Then you got all the niches like Tarkov, Hell Let Loose, ARMA, etc.

It's not a worthwhile endeavour unless you put in significant investment and adopt a live service model.

But it is wide open since im talking about classic shooters like Medal of Honor or Socom.

Most of the games you listed are twitch arena shooters or Battle Royal. Exclusive wise, it'd be great if they put something put.

What is this? They cooking in space?


According to our information, the game Concord will soon receive a new announcement. This announcement is expected to unveil the gameplay as well as all (or some) characters of the multiplayer FPS game.

If the announcement or even the holding of a State of Play occurs this week, there is a very strong likelihood that we will see this game announced during this event.

Based on the initial information we have gathered, and without wanting to spoil anything, we can say that the game Concord draws strong inspiration from the Marvel universe, particularly Guardians of the Galaxy.

Considering that the game Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy published by Square Enix was a solo-only type, we wonder if Concord will embody a kind of Guardians of the Galaxy-like experience in multiplayer mode.

For sony to do a succesfull fps/tps they would have to treat it like a old school pc fps with some control... great gameplay with custom maps/forge, mods, personal servers. And a matchmaking system that can bring it all together.

Halo infinite could of been so much bigger if they had forge and a custom game matchmaking/server browser at launch... also if it would of been a true next gen game :francis:
